I married a Mexican. [b]huge[/b] cultural differences.
The biggest challenge was him trying to figure out how to deal with me. He expected a submissive woman who would cook and clean and wait on him hand and foot. I expected a partner who was going to treat me as his equal and share in all of the household duties. I didn’t even know how to cook or clean when we got married because it had been done for me all my life.
The first few years really were a struggle. But I won the battle
my parents were from two completely different cultures but my mother also won the same battle with my dad
